Yearly Exam & Birth Control

The Health Department will help you to "plan" your family when you are ready and prevent one when you are not. Our compassionate and understanding staff will perform a physical exam to access your overall physical and sexual health.

We also provide education on available birth control options and information on how to effectively use birth control to prevent unplanned pregnancies and the transmission of sexually transmitted illnesses. Types of birth control we offer include:

Fees

Fees for minors who receive confidential family planning services are based on a sliding fee scale on the teen's income only and may result in no out of pocket expense.
No one is denied services based on income or health insurance status.

Birth control at low or no out of pocket expense.

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) & HIV/AIDS Testing

HPV vaccine (Gardisal®) is a series of three, properly-spaced immunizations that protects females from cervical cancer and males from throat cancer.
